A Jazz Mambo --- the major part of great Latin is the drums and bass; the vocals makes it authentic; brass adds another flavor. It is not just the volume of the drums but the quality, just being louder falls short. The keyboard player is a bit much for me.

Tremendous drive --- repetitive dynamite grove to sing or ride on; you cannot sit still.
